Can FPL differential Jiménez profit from Wolves’ good run of fixtures?

Gameweek 5 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) is almost upon us, which gives us an opportunity to have a look at some more differential options.

This time, we’ve selected low-owned picks at Wolverhampton Wanderers, Newcastle United and Norwich City who we think have the potential to make an impact.

As always, to qualify, the player must have an ownership of 5% or less at the time of writing.

RAUL JIMENEZ

  • FPL ownership: 4.4%
  • Price: £7.4m
  • GW5-9 fixtures: BRE | sou | NEW | avl | lee

Raúl Jiménez (£7.4m) has blanked in each of his four opening fixtures and looked a little rusty at times, but could do well given Wolverhampton Wanderers’ forthcoming schedule.

In fact, Wolves don’t play another traditional ‘big six’ team until Gameweek 15.

While the Mexican’s returns have been disappointing so far, it’s worth noting that he is the only Premier League forward to register double figures for both shots and chances created. His 13 goal attempts in the first four Gameweeks are second only to the 18 of Michail Antonio (£7.9m) amongst all forwards, while his 12 chances created is only bettered by Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.5m) and Jack Grealish (£8.0m) across all positions.

Wastefulness is clearly costing Wolves in the final third, then, which is backed up by the team’s underlying numbers. While they rank 18th v other Premier League sides for goals, with two, only Liverpool and Manchester City have accumulated more goal attempts and shots in the box than the Molineux outfit so far.

After a tough opening run, which saw them lose 1-0 to Leicester City (a), Tottenham Hotspur (h) and Manchester United (h), they now have an opportunity to build on their 2-0 win against Watford in Gameweek 4.

More clinical finishing is required for Jiménez, but the fixtures should give him the opportunity to open his account for the season very soon. 

JOE WILLOCK

  • FPL ownership: 1.1%
  • Price: £6.0m
  • GW5-9 fixtures: LEE | wat | wol | TOT | cry

Joe Willock (£6.0m) enjoyed an impressive loan spell at Newcastle United last season, scoring eight goals in just 14 league games, as he emerged as the Magpies’ standout performer.

That goalscoring run saw him become the youngest ever player to score in seven successive Premier League matches, and as a result, a deal worth around £20m was agreed with Arsenal last month.

However, it’s fair to say Willock brought far more than just goals. His ability to drive forward and lead counter-attacks also impressed, which could be crucial in Gameweek 5. 

Marcelo Bielsa’s Leeds United have shipped 11 goals so far this season, rank 19th for shots in the box conceded and have also given up 26 chances from the centre of the pitch, at least six more than any other side. It’s also worth noting that the Whites can sometimes struggle against direct runners, and will be without the suspended Pascal Struijk (£4.4m), Robin Koch (£4.4m), and perhaps Diego Llorente (£4.5m), too.

In his three Premier League starts in 2021/22, Willock has looked a little short of full match fitness. He was also taken off with a knock in the latter stages of the 4-1 defeat at Manchester United in Gameweek 4. However, Steve Bruce revealed earlier today that he is ‘okay’, which suggests that he can kick on as he becomes sharper.

Now, Willock will be hoping to score his first goal of the season against Leeds tomorrow night and given both teams’ shaky defences, we could be in for an open game.

MAX AARONS

  • FPL ownership: 1.7%
  • Price: £4.5m
  • GW5-9 fixtures: WAT | eve | bur | BHA | che

Norwich City have lost their opening four top-flight games, conceding 11 goals in the process, which is hardly the basis for recommending a defensive differential.

However, the schedule has of course played a part, with matches again Liverpool (h), Manchester City (a), Leicester City (h) and Arsenal (a) to open the season. Now, with the fixtures easing right through until the beginning of December, using Max Aarons (£4.5m) as part of a rotation pairing could pay off.

The England U21 international has created more chances than any other Canaries player this season, has had four goal attempts of his own and also ranks second for final-third touches. Defensively, the numbers suggest he could do well for bonus, too, having made 10 successful tackles, seven interceptions, five blocks and 20 ball recoveries. 

Norwich’s clean sheet prospects are of course debatable, but the additions of centre-half Ozan Kabak (£4.5m) and defensive midfielder Mathias Normann (£4.5m) could add a little more solidity to their set-up, and with Watford up next, who are without a single goal or big chance to their name in the last three Gameweeks, a shut-out isn’t completely out of the question. It’s also worth noting that only three teams in the division have conceded more crosses from their left-flank than the Hornets this season.

Priced at just £4.5m, Aarons could be a nice value option at the back, who can step into your starting XI when the fixtures fall kindly.

    People seem to be very bullish about Reece James but I think his big score vs Arsenal has overhyped him as an FPL asset. Here's some stuff which may cause a rethink.

    Since Tuchel took over, James in all competitions has (EPL stats in brackets)
    - 19 starts (12 starts)
    - 12 cameos (7 cameos)
    - 1 unused sub (1 unused sub)
    - 1 goals, 3 assists (1 goal, 2 assists)

    Will his attacking output increase this year? Probably yes, the addition of Lukaku helps a lot with this.

    Will his potential for starts increase this year? Perhaps, he is firmly first choice now but still can easily be rotated with Azpi and Cho as options at RWB and Christensen and Chalobah able to play RCB.

    Will his cameos decrease? No, I dont think so. The 5 sub rule was scrapped in the premier league last season and despite this he had 7 cameos since Tuchel took over, Tuchel clearly sees him as someone who can make an impact off the bench.

    I think Im just gonna get a Centre back.

    1. Tcheco
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I think his attacking potential over the next few games can beat a consistent 6 pointer CB

      1. Alisson WondHaaland
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Theres every chance he can, but his stats from last season would suggest otherwise

        1. @persecuted_by_mods
            2 years, 6 months ago

            Last season Tuchel used him less often as his crossing didn't mean much with Werner fluffing them, and Tuchel recognised that dribbling wise James isn't a hakimi or a Dani alves type. This year they have Lukaku, James will play way more imo and is a great option as those same crosses will now be converted

      2. FPL_Crisis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Surely Rudiger over Christensen?
        I think James plays 8 out of 10 games so like any chelsea defender if you have a playing 4th/5th def it's ok

        1. Alisson WondHaaland
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          I think a case can be made for either Rud or Chris, the key factor being they hardly ever get cameos. James on the other hand, he gets SO MANY cameos. A sub will be irrelevant.

      3. FOO FIGHTER
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        I say get Mendy, sit back and relax.

        1. Alisson WondHaaland
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Mendy will be pretty poor for save points and bonus. Kepa does play the odd game too. A CB benching can at least be covered by a sub but a GK benching cant. Also paying 1.5m more over someone like Sanchez doesnt feel right

          1. FOO FIGHTER
            • 4 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            Mendy has 16 saves so far and 2 bonus.

            1. Alisson WondHaaland
              • 8 Years
              2 years, 6 months ago

              Very small sample size. If you look at last season, Mendy was very low compared to other keepers.

              As for Sanchez, I agree that he doesnt save much either but my point still stands about the 1.5m difference

              1. FOO FIGHTER
                • 4 Years
                2 years, 6 months ago

                16 saves in total from the following

                CRY, ARS, LIV and AVL

                You want to call that a small sample size?

                1. Andy_Social
                  • 11 Years
                  2 years, 6 months ago

                  Mt takeaway from that is that the Chelsea defence is not as water-tight as we're making them out to be.

                2. Alisson WondHaaland
                  • 8 Years
                  2 years, 6 months ago

                  It is. Most of the saves came in the 2 most recent games in which they played Liverpool while a man down and in the Villa game they were missing many first choice players, I dont expect it to continue.

          2. FOO FIGHTER
            • 4 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            Sanchez 7 saves no bonus so far so not to sure what you are getting at.

            2 years, 6 months ago

            I'm going to follow up my pre season community article on goalkeepers in a few weeks, I will wait until gw 6 is over. Mendy is bound to get a mention with his combination of clean sheets and saves that he's had so far. Is that a sustainable combination? Maybe not but the sheer number of clean sheets Chelsea will get and the assured route into their defence makes him worth considering.

            1. FOO FIGHTER
              • 4 Years
              2 years, 6 months ago

              Yes I agree and doubt he will be sat on the bench for whats his name in the League.

              Mendy is Chelsea's 2nd highest point scorer at this point. That is why I may decide to have him as my CHE 'defender' + Lukaku.

              I see way too much rotation in the Chelsea defence and their midfield is an ever bigger minefield.

          • 14 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Yer i think many of the newer fpl players just look at their teamsheet and think it looks good without thinking about balance or flexibility going forward. I've not seen a good team with all 4 in yet.

      2. Weasel Boy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Got 4 premiums

        I'd count TAA also

      3. The Red Devil
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Let them say

      4. Tcheco
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Great team. Would get rid of Benny for Traore

        1. Tcheco
          • 6 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Ramsdale good shout at 4.5. Could use the 0.5 to double up on Wolves with Sa

      5. BrockLanders
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Looks good. I'm not keen on Raphina personally but everyone to their own..

      6. Holmes
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Problem starts when Benrahma and Gray and Raphinha and Semedo dont perform, you will always be hunting for new options.

        1. Bounce
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          And the people with Greenwood, Jota, Mount, Torres will have problems with rotation.

          1. Holmes
            • 10 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            A rotating Jota or Greenwood are likely to outscore nailed Benrahma or Gray.

            It looks fine and likely to work for now because we dont have many 7+ mids performing but if and when they start doing well, one of the premiums will have to leave.

          2. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
            • 14 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            But they can easily switch to other price points, whereas when your mids start to decline ( which they will) there is no where to go so you have the painful decision of dropping an elite player and probably taking more hits.

      7. Leaf
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        That’s unbalanced

        1. Leaf
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Gray Benrama are 2 pointers most weeks

      8. FOO FIGHTER
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Leno been rested apparently so I would pass on Ramsdale.

        You have the exact starting midfield 4 as I do 🙂

        It will only be a matter of time where many start jumping on the TAA, Salah, Ron and Rom train...

      9. Khark
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        You can't say for certain Ramsdale will play, he might do and you could be on to a winner but he played last week because Leno returned late from International Duty. If he doesn't play you're automatically down to 10men.

        I'd rather spend the 0.5 in this situation although i do like a contingency fund and go for Sa and Tierney over Ramsdale and Semedo.

      10. caldracula
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Not bad actually, would prefer Gallagher or someone in for Ben and then Cancelo instead of Shaw.

    6. Pukkipartyy
      • 5 Years

      On WC do u keep Torres?

      1. BrockLanders
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        I'm bring him in on WC

        1. Pukkipartyy
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Yea, that SOU fixture looks good. Not worry about rotation?

          1. BrockLanders
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            Yep, but reckon he's worth it

      2. Müller Light
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Not on WC, probably gets the weekend and then god knows when they are all fit.

    7. BrockLanders
      • 9 Years

      Stupid question I know, but I presume using your WC doesn't mean you carry your FT?

      1. Andy_Social

        Yup, back to 1FT

        Im guessing you've hit the WC with 2ft's available.

        In future if you know you're gonna hit a wildcard the next week, it can be quite fun to have a punt on 2 players the week before

      Champions League:

      City concede 3
      United concede 2
      Liverpool concede 2
      Chelsea keep a clean sheet.

      1. BrockLanders
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Liverpool had no Vam Dijk or wouldn't have gave conceded

        1. Andy_Social
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          True. I wouldn't shift Trent anyway, but it veers me closer to double Chelsea defence in the near future.

          1. BrockLanders
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            Not sure myself, I'd personally want James/Rudgier for Chelsea and definitely TAA. Spurs will tougher than most think this week. I'd like Alonso, if maintains a first team place for PL

      2. Amartey Partey
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        City started Ake
        United had ten men

    9. FredrikH
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Last piece of the puzzle.

      Dias Williams or the doubble up on Marcal+Semedo +0.6m itb. Problem with latter is having to bench one of them in most GWs.

      1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Why not Semedo and another 4.5?

        1. FredrikH
          • 11 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Just kind of fancy the double up.

      2. FPL_Crisis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        the only double up i'd do is Sa + one of Marcal/Semedo

    10. Threat Level Midnight
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Semedo/Tierney

      1. Threat Level Midnight

        Sarr is fine for next 2

        1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Missed adding: starting next week.

          1. Holmes
            • 10 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            Gray or Doucoure then

            1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
              • 7 Years
              2 years, 6 months ago

              Thanks. Just checked. Willock has good fixtures too. Right up till GW 16.

      2. Pedaso Pirates
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Sarr?

        1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Starting next week. Forgot to mention. He will only have 1 good game.

          1. No Salah
            • 6 Years
            2 years, 6 months ago

            No, still he will have two good games

            He has Norwich now.

            Newcastle, Leeds in next two.

      3. Boom XhakaLacaSaka
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Gray

    12. Wheato182
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Got Torres in on the wildcard but doesnt feel right, considering switching to Raphina for his fixtures, that seem silly? or any other midfielders around that price point I need to consider?

      1. FPL_Crisis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        you could just keep torres and plan that transfer next week when city have che liv?

      2. BrockLanders
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Torres has much chance of hauling than Raphina, if he starts of course

        1. BrockLanders
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Much more

      3. Wheato182
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Thanks guys, will hold fire for now. Raph maybe next week!

      4. Philosopher's Stones
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Looking to bring in Torres with my FT. Could be a great if starts against Southampton, but Pep roulette has kept me from clicking the transfer button so far.

    13. Firmino
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Would you do Greenwood -> Jota -4?

      1. BrockLanders
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        No

    14. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Is 5-2-3 allowed in FPL?

      1. OPTA FPL
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Fans will avoid you

      2. STONEROSES
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Only stipulation is you have to play 3 DEF’s… so, yes.

        1. Holmes
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          cool, thanks

    15. FPL price manipulators are …
      • 10 Years

      Isn't there a more recent picture of Jimi for the caption?

      1. Holmes
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Will have to pay for a new one

        1. STONEROSES
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          What’s the going rate?

    16. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Add Wolves - check
      Add Leeds - check
      Add Arsenal -
      Add Chelsea -

    17. Amartey Partey
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Ben Foster is back. Any chance he starts against Norwich?

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Didn't he rotate with Bachmann last season

        1. Amartey Partey
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          I think so and Bachmann hadn’t been playing that well.

      2. Boom XhakaLacaSaka
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Start him and find out?

        1. Amartey Partey
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Might do

    18. Boom XhakaLacaSaka

      2 years, 6 months ago

      Roll? 1ft 0.7itb

      Sanchez
      White Taa Shaw Digne
      Salah Raph Benrahma Jota
      CR7 (c) Toney

    19. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      WOL + SOU rotate really nicely til gw14/15
      Would you go Livra + Semedo on wildcard or choose Sa in goal?
      Really can't decide on a wc keeper - prefer set n forget if possible

    20. sozopol
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Gallagher, Gray, Doucoure have the most points at that price point and I like them in that order

      1. sozopol
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        :facepalm: reply fail to Dark Side above

        1. DARK SIDE OF THE LOON
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Yes. Gallagher is an option too. Thanks!

      1. Botman and Robben
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        I did Wilson to Jiminez for a -4 last week. Still waiting for his goal. 😀

        1. Babit1967

      "Bamford has no difficulties"

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 6 Years

        Nice!

      2. Amartey Partey
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        He’s pinging to play!

    25. OPTA FPL
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Wonder who ask that question for fpl community. Not any newspaper report the rumour after the games

    26. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      8 of my team are playing Newcastle, Watford, Norwich or palace

      It’s going to be a bad week isn’t it

      1. Christina.
        • 14 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        ouch

      2. pingissimus
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Not too late to get some more in to face Liverpool 🙂

      3. Karan14
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Hope at least 6 of those 8 are playing against Newcastle or Palace because I wouldn't want a single player from the Wat v Nor game.

        1. Steve The Spud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 4 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          Bachman sarr and Williams starting, I should take something out of that game I hope, a 0-0 would be good

      4. Khark
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Damage limitation week. A lot of people are in the same boat, if Salah blanks the overall scores could be very very low

    27. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Start 1

      A Ayling (new)
      B Coufal (MNU)

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 6 Years

    28. The Red Devil
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      I'm more or less settled on this WC
      Only thing is I wanna keep 0.1 more ITB for Torres to jota/Greenwood incase things go South, where do you recommend that saving?

      Sanchez/Steele
      TAA/Shaw/Semedo/Marcal/Williams
      Salah/Grey/Torres/Raphinha/Sissoko
      Ronaldo/Lukaku/Street

      0.4 ITB
      Williams to omo? Like Gray for his next few fixtures

      1. FPL_Crisis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Wolves next 3 are super then kind of dip a bit
        Marcal to White
        Livra though is the best 5th def imo
        Dacoure over Gray perhaps?

    29. tabby98
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 6 months ago

      Best £7.6m midfielder? Already have raphinha and benrahma

      1. OPTA FPL
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 6 months ago

        Greenwood

        1. tabby98
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 6 months ago

          He’s 7.7 I’m 0.1 short 🙁

      2. Christina.
        • 14 Years
